Host Type  
If a Synapse cable is used (i.e., part number STIxx-xxxx), the scanner autodetects the  
Synapse cable and there is no need to scan bar codes to enable the Synapse host.  
If a USB interface is used, the scanner autodetects the USB and defaults to the HID  
keyboard interface. See page 8 to select the IBM hand-held host type. Refer to the LS  
4208 Product Reference Guide, p/n 72E-69413-xx, for additional USB host types.  
If a Keyboard Wedge, RS-232, Wand Emulation, Scanner Emulation, or IBM 46XX is  
used, the appropriate host type must be scanned. Select the appropriate host type from  
the bar codes that follow.
